There are many teachers available... Keep in mind.

What I learned about John C Benet was that he was trying to recreate himself and no one knew of a past he left, but it still found him leaving him to be something that he wasn't. It reminds me of that line from Cowboys & Aliens where the dying old man says, "God don't care who you were, but who you are now."
